Dies ist ein interessanter Schritt von Hyundai. Durch den Kauf von Boston Dynamics Robotics haben sie sich verpflichtet, in den nächsten Jahren über 80 % ihrer Roboter zu kaufen. Die Gewerkschaften befinden sich hier in einem letztlich verlorenen Kampf. Irgendwann müssen sie und andere in der Politik engagierte Menschen dieses Problem ausgehend von dem angehen, was in einer zukünftigen Welt nach der Arbeit passieren wird, und nicht verzweifelt versuchen, die Wirtschaft von heute zu erhalten, die durch Robotik und KI bald aussterben wird.

Ha, from what i know about automotive union workers having worked in auto factories for years….go ahead and let your robots walk around the plant, just dont count on them surviving it 🤣🤣
Hyundai buying 25,000 of its own robots is the clearest signal yet that factory automation is about to accelerate way faster than people realize. The union isn’t losing – they’re fighting yesterday’s battle while the real question becomes whether displaced workers get retrained or just abandoned.
Tired of seeing this „unions have no power here“ argument when it’s legitimately not true.
Doubtful about humanoid form factors. Purpose built robots are far efficient. I guess deployment of humanoid robots is a kind of marketing flex to appear futuristic.
there is no post work world. Majority of people in power and politics don’t care about preserving anything. If you want to see some of what is going to happen watch Elysium.
The robots aren’t the scary part to me. Companies replacing people without any long term plan for the people they replace is the part that gets ugly fast
The silly thing is that all these companies, CEOs and governments don’t get is that if you lay off the entire planet, who’s going to buy whatever your new robot or AI work force makes? No one will have any income to pay for said products.
Aren’t they just going to start an adjacent sister company that works behind the scenes?
Haha everyone wants a cheaper car but our country is so anti automation. Without productivity and efficiency gains our cars will only get more expensive and be noncompetitive outside of the US. Chinese EVs are cheap because they’ve achieved full automation, and in many cases even lights out automation.
If their competition does it and they do not they will go bankrupt so there will be no union jobs anyhow, unless tariffs used or the industry subsidized.
